Around 2nd July Galgos del Sol had a massive billboard erected outside the Dos Mares centro comercial near San Javier.  IT TRANSLATES "In Ancient Times the Galgo Espanol was a prize possession, our galgo Espanol deserves the same respect today, Please help this noble animal regain a place in our hearts".  
 
The billboard has ruffled a few feathers!!. The whole thing was stolen a week later! The framework too. Fortunately the billboard company will replace it free of charge. It goes up on 14th August.
 
 
 
A 2nd billboard, Respect the galgo has been sited on the C-3319 towards San Javier from Murcia on 9th July.  
 
We just want to give you a little background on the new Galgos del Sol billboard. This beautiful galgo - his name is Hermes - has created such a stir these past few days with his beauty & let's not forget a talented photographer who has captured him in this perfect moment. GdS has never met him but wish we had. As with many of them Hermes started off having a hard life mainly tied to a tree but now luckily lives with a lovely new family.
 
This stunning photo shows the look of love, compassion, forgiveness and innocence of a galgo, the way they truly are and this moment was captured by © Patricia R. Soto a lady that dedicates much of her professional photography to helping galgos here in Spain. A huge thanks to Patricia for her talents and catching this amazing moment.
